Do you think OpenJ9 is better than HotSpot?
OpenJ9 is base line for IBM JDK, derived from Oracle and IBM combo. HotSpot derivation of Oracle only. OpenJ9 is my personal choice, I have been using it more than a year (previously IBM JDK). We could put multiple docker images, OpenJ9, HotSpot, and Alpine (based images for docker smaller size).
AdoptOpenJDK9 is not LTS, so it already EOL'ed in March 2018.

~~Also GitBucket is currently tested against JDK8 and 11. (both are LTS)~~
Ah, I misunderstood..., its OpenJ9 and not OpenJDK9
Yes. Still staying with JDK8 of OpenJ9, LTS version
I see. Generally speaking, HotSpot seems to be a better choise since it's used widely. However, providing multiple docker images might be a good idea if it doesn't require extra effort to maintain.
Docker Official jdk8 link, 1M+ downloads https://hub.docker.com/_/adoptopenjdk?tab=tags based on ubuntu base image, 205-225MB size. 1M+ downloads.
https://hub.docker.com/search?q=adoptopenjdk%2Fopenjdk8&type=image OpenJ9 jdk8, other system images debian, alpine, centos, and ubi (redhat 8), size 95-170MB. 5M+ downloads.
I meant the popularity of VM itself, not docker images. However, I understood the advantage of OpenJ9 in terms of image size. If we want to provide a smaller image, OpenJ9 looks a good choice.
@takezoe from the many OpenJDKs, Zulu JDKs are even better. The Docker images for them: https://github.com/zulu-openjdk/zulu-openjdk
@takezoe Docker seems using older version of JRE build as base image. https://hub.docker.com/layers/gitbucket/gitbucket/4/images/sha256-909664650e090b5a44c9ac9f696e51cde34e7c79f4367402309ec2361ef20e11
Can we update to adoptopenjdk, thinking of https://hub.docker.com/r/adoptopenjdk/openjdk8-openj9, its OSS with backing of IBM.
If the team agrees, I would like to work on a pull request
